Orange has shown at the Mobile World Congress 2023 that is being held in the city of Barcelona the advantages of 5G technology in the metaverse. To show us what it is capable of and after the recent launch of Orange’s 5G+ network, the French operator has shown how it is possible at its stand at the Barcelona fair dive deep into the metaverse with a unique experience that we have been part of.
One of the advantages of 5G SA networks, dubbed 5G+ commercially by Orange, is the low latency of the connections. This allows for real-time interactions and enables applications that were impossible with 4G (let alone older technologies like 2G or 3G). In this case, we have used virtual reality glasses to get fully into the metaverse together with four other colleagues, one of them located more than 1,000 kilometers away.
The truth is that Orange’s demonstration has served to show that 5G+ technology has come to change things in the mobile phone market, allowing things that were impossible previously. In the demo we have entered a metaverse created by Orange in which we have traveled through a series of elements that have explained the benefits of technology to us.
At the same time, the movement of a dancer It has been captured in real time and has been seen in the demo center where we were spectators. The low latency of the 5G+ network is the key to making the dancer’s movement appear in the metaverse in real time.
Thanks to 5G+
An Orange experience that has been carried out together with its technological partner Huawei and with the collaboration of the company Virtual Voyagers. A striking and futuristic result that has been possible thanks to the broadband of 5G technology that allows movement control commands to be transmitted in real time while the images captured at the operator’s store in the city of Malaga are received.
Thanks to the super broadband and also to the low latency that offers the new mobile technology that the company boasts of and that allows every detail to be transmitted in real time, from the movements of the wearer of the test suit to his avatar in a clear and immediate way
Throughout the MWC Barcelona event, visitors will be able to access the virtual reproduction space at the Orange stand to see the demonstrations and access the 360 camera
